A Very Harold & Kumar 3 D Christmas

At least one of the perpetual stoners has acquired a proper job, but that can’t prevent a bong-based Christmas tree fire

Fans of perpetual stoners Harold and Kumar will know exactly what to expect from A Very Harold & Kumar 3-D Christmas, and they are unlikely to be disappointed by the third instalment of the duo’s weed-based misadventures.

In this episode, Harold is now married, with a nicely appointed suburban home, a high-powered Wall Street job and a Mexican father-in-law who hates his guts. Kumar meanwhile is, well, still clutching his bong as if it’s a security blanket. An accidental Christmas tree fire (take a wild guess how it started) reunites the estranged friends on a drug-addled night of carnage that includes a claymation animated joint hallucination and a jaw-droppingly unflattering cameo from Neil Patrick Harris.
